What if #Mississippi passed a law that required $0.50 of every #NIL $1 raised for in-state public universities had to go to offset tuition for the entire student body? #Priorities

Thanks @stoolpresidente ! Many childhood memories at this small MS Delta diner. Tracy is well deserving and can’t wait until this landmark is rebuilt.

Way to go @HailState
PAYING BACK THEIR ATHLETIC PROFITS:
Only 9 schools did...
There are tons of ways to measure athletic dept. profitability, but one metric matters more than any other in the regular business world:
Did you pay out profits or not?
In the college sports world, only nine (public) schools met this threshold in FY 2022, and I think it's pretty impressive and worthy of a shout-out!
These were the ONLY nine schools who actually reported transferring athletic profits BACK to their central campus coffers in the most recent @KnightAthletics data:
Granted, there are a million ways to look at subsidies and transfer pricing charges flying in both directions of the accounting books, but the actual transfer & return of athletic profits from the athletic dept. back to central campus budgets is worth a salute to these nine schools and their well-run athletic departments!

That wasn’t thunder last night. Turns out it was all of those knee-high, white cowboy boots stomping angrily out of Vaught Hem. #morganwasnt
